"If You Were A Sailboat" Video Review

Katie Melua's extraordinary journey continues with the release of her third album 'Pictures', an album that will delight her legions of fans, confirm Katie's status as a unique and remarkable vocalist, and reveal the third chapter in what is destined to be a long musical career.

Known and loved for singing open-hearted ballads, Katie does not disappoint with the first single 'If You Were A Sailboat' set to follow previous lead singles 'The Closest Thing To Crazy' and 'Nine Million Bicycles' on to the airwaves.

Melua said of the song:

“What I liked about the song is the fact that a lot of love songs tend to deal with the fluffy nice side of love, but this one deals with how you get very selfish when you fall in love with someone, and you don't want to share them with the world you just want them all about yourself. What's genius about Mike's lyrics is that instead of saying that directly he uses these crazy strange metaphors, "if you were a piece of wood I'd nail you to the floor" and quite bizarre stuff and I like that. Musically it sounds like a really nice smooth love song, but the message is pretty intense and quite dark.
